John Wilson

I'm the lead developer at Sessionwire. I also run index9, a small Mac software studio. Based in Kelowna, BC.

Now

Sessionwire is a virtual studio for remote recording and mixing. I've led development since 2017, building the web and desktop apps and running the infrastructure behind them. My work includes WebRTC audio and video sessions, an in-browser audio mixer, encrypted peer-to-peer file transfer, and search that finds audio by how it sounds.

At index9, I build Mac tools. Windrose is fan control for Apple Silicon. Whetstone is a prompt optimizer for Mac.

Previously

Before software, I spent a decade in audio. I ran Earthtone Mastering, mixed live sound in Canada and the UK, produced music for film and TV, and led the audio engineering program at a Kelowna college, teaching over 100 students a week.

Education

BA in Sound Technology from LIPA in Liverpool. Paul McCartney founded the school and gave feedback on my final-year project. MA in Creative Media Practice from Middlesex University, focused on remote multimedia collaboration.
